Grading: Mastery is our goal.


90+=A ...80-89=B ...70-79=C ...60-69= D


Assignments and Handouts earn either 10 or 20 points as indicated on each page.

Reports, Tests, Quizzes and Pop Quizzes vary in points from 5 to 50 points.

Assignments are due by the beginning of each class period. Unexcused late work will be worth half points.
Latin Lab is available on Thursday afternoons from 3:00-4:00 or by arrangement during office hours.

Grades are based upon your effort and mastery in
  • participation via reports and online activities. These may be completed to 100%.
  • daily assignments: vocabulary, questions, exercises. These may be corrected to 100%
  • examination via tests, quizzes and handouts. These may be repeated for grade improvement.

Please note, a grade of A+ means spending time above and beyond the daily assignments.

To help you master the material necessary to earn an A+:
  • read the story for each chapter aloud at least three times,
  • read all grammar and culture lessons in the textbook aloud,
  • test yourself with any flashcards you have made, and
  • visit the Prentice Hall and ECCE ROMANI web sites for 15 minutes daily.
